The Kenny Rogers: There You Go Again CD is labeled as enhanced and purports to offer some extras when listened to on your computer. One of the things I like about it is that when the home screen appears, instrumental music from the title track plays. When …

Wave of Mutilation is the third song off of the pixies 1989 album Doolittle. While many state Surfer Rosa as the overall best Pixies album, I would have to disagree and say Doolittle is my favorite album of theirs. There are so many great tracks off of it, with …

What You Do by Chrisette Michele Feat. Ne-Yo is a very lovely song and Chrisette Michele, with her powerful vocals, totally sweep me away with this song. What You Do is the title given and Ne-Yo adds a touch of class as well. It is just awesome …

One of my guilty pleasures is listening to dance music rave, euro-dance and euro-pop from the nineteen nineties. I guess it’s a little strange judging from my personality and my other likes and dislikes, but I believe it stems from me hearing it so much, and liking the dance …

Overview —“ Side I of Rubber Soul, The Beatles’ sixth studio album, definitely showcases quite a bit of development as songwriters, from both Lennon and McCartney, and well even Harrison I suppose. McCartney’s contributions to this side of the record seemed as if they’d be lighthearted at first, just …

I am a huge fan of music that has a distinct eighties vibe to it, not least of which music actually made in the eighties. There is just something about the use of cheesy synths and rhythm inspired pop base lines that just keeps me listening without question. For …

It’s no question that I love to rock, but I’m not much of a drummer. The Ion Digital Drum Studio has been helping with that. This product is far more than a practice machine though. And the part I love about it, it’s only the size of a small …

When Two Worlds Collide is a song by Iron Maiden which appears on their album Virtual XI. The song opens up with a somewhat ominous sounding part which is driven by this interesting clean guitar part before Bayley comes in with the vocals of the track. I’ll be honest …

This is another crappy CD. This is what personally I think. Now, for all those who are not aware, Beenie is actually one of the biggest DJs around in terms of dance music. I would say this album to be pretty good, except for the fact …

Cobwebs is a song by Animal Collective and the third track on their 2008 EP, Water Curses. Opening up with a random collection of sounds, Tare joins in the mix and the song seems to try to create a hypnotizing atmosphere which works nicely to some extent. Although I …

I never really pay attention to Demi Lovato. All of a sudden, her new single released and it was everywhere. It also went straight to #1 on itunes. I was so surprised so I did a little research and found out she had eating disorders, cut herself, and went …

This album is all but a display of what a good pop/electronica album should be. A friend bought me this record last year, much to my surprise. I knew I liked “Here In Your Arms”, which had been introduced as a single beforehand, but I didn’t know any of …

This is my mom’s ever favorite CD song, which is Come Rejoice! A Judy Collins Christmas by Judy Collins. She loves Judy Collins so much, that she has a collection of every that Judy achieves in her career.

Another talented person in my eyes would be Tracy Chapman. You just need to listen to Our Bright Future by Tracy Chapman to know that she is a real singer and the real deal. Most of her songs are about life and love in general and sometimes about …

Overview - Reload, the second half of Metallica’s double album, continues with the style change Metallica introduced on Load but doesn’t really expand or develop it. Generally the album feels basically the same as Load felt for me: some of the songs were brilliant, some were solid, and some …

If this is graduation it’s from a 2 year school. The sampling and tired metaphors from kanye west is old. Rap is about bravado but kanye is that times ten. He not only tell u he’s the best at rapping every other sentence he also mentions he’s the best …

One of my new favorite songs off of the new Slash album is By the Sword. The track features Wolfmother singer and guitarist Andrew Stockdale. I think Slash did a good job on having him sing for this song. It really fits his style as a rock vocalist …

I actually look at Jermaine Jackson as the best singer of the Jackson Family, although I often get shouted at for saying that. Jermaine could have easily gotten to the heights that his brother Michael Jackson did if he had his heart truly into the music, but instead he …

This is a great first album from this new pop punk band. More on the pop side than punk but still there. The lead singer embodies that sort of upper middle class dissolute rakish character and it works well. They’re certainly not the most intellectual band …
